I believe the first version of the Morgan Greer has a brown box with a $7.95 price on the lower back. The font on the box is a little different (plainer?) and there are no stars on the ends of the box. The card backs have a bit of a washed out blue colour sort of like faded jeans, the later versions have a darker solid colour. As for the stars on the back being different, well, I don't believe that would change which version the deck is. Who knows, maybe it does I have never really dug into that mystery. Hope that helps and good luck hunting.
